Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On June 16, 2020, Comstock Resources, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with BofA Securities, Inc., as representative of the underwriters named therein (the “Underwriters”) to issue and sell $500.0 million aggregate principal amount of its 9.75% senior unsecured notes due 2026 (the “Notes”) in a public offering (the “Offering”) pursuant to a shelf registration statement on Form S-3, as amended (File No. 333-238113), declared effective as of June 1, 2020 (the “Registration Statement”), the accompanying base prospectus dated June 1, 2020 and the related prospectus supplement to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). The size of the Offering was increased from the previously announced aggregate principal amount of $400.0 million.
Pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, the Notes were priced at 90% of par. The Company estimates that the net proceeds from the Offering will be approximately $441.0 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses, which amount will be used to repay borrowings outstanding under the Company’s bank credit facility. The Underwriting Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants by the Company, and provides certain indemnification rights and obligations of the parties. The Offering is expected to close on June 23, 2020, subject to customary closing and market conditions.
At closing, the Notes will be issued pursuant to an indenture, as supplemented by a supplemental indenture, to be entered into with American Transfer & Trust Company, LLC, as trustee.
The foregoing description of the material terms of the Underwriting Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Underwriting Agreement filed as Exhibit 1.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
